[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 382067, member: 3419"] Hi Boogie, I would ask for placement ideas from your psychiatrist and therapist. They should be able to give you names. I am alarmed that you were driven to go after Satanica with-a baseball bat. I suggest that you try a medication switch. I see that you are already on medications and don't know which ones, but they definitely need tweaking. I've been pushed to the limits b4 but if I feel that I am going to physically go after difficult child, I leave the house. That should be your plan. It can just be a walk around the yard to cool off, but it has to be away from the situation. I encountered this many yrs ago when difficult child was a toddler, and a military friend of mine, with-experience in 'Nam, told me I had to leave the house to cool off. He was so right. Don't be driven to do something you regret. You will get all the blalme, no matter whose "fault" it is. Again, I'm sorry I don't have placement ideas, but I would definitely call your psychiatrist and therapist and get ideas from them. They can make calls for you, too. You can also call the police non-emergency # and ask for advice on truancy, trespassing, whatever they can come up with-to get Satanica into the system. Several people here have used that route. It's not the best, but it can work, eventually. Once the judge orders it. Satanica can go from Juvie to hospital. and a more permanent, professional setting. [/QUOTE]
